Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 6 - Race 6 - Mdn Claiming
DENOS GRACE (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1106m at Saratoga Turf, beaten 8 lengths into fifth. Won't find this as tough so she will be hard to beat. VERITE (11) is a filly by Authentic from the stakes-winner Tizplenty on debut. Strong profile and should play a role in the finish. GRACIE'S LAKEHOUSE (12) made a promising debut over 1509m at this track (Turf) last start, finishing third and beaten 2 lengths. Tricky draw to overcome but she is among the leading chances. GABAGOLD (3) was solid on debut last start when beaten 2.25 lengths into fourth over 1509m at this track (Turf) on August 5. Strong top-three chance.
